Catching up on my #AuldLangSpine recs from…2024! 😆 Thank you, @Deblovestoread - this one was outstanding. I‘d been happy to see Rebecca Wait on your list because she seems so beloved here on Litsy. I now see why. Loved the writing, and these characters will stay with me.
This was so good! Historical mystery set in Victorian England with a serial killer, an inspector with a troubling past, and a female doctor. Well written and captivating.
Trigger warnings for graphic murder scenes, child abuse and violence, and violence toward women
Well…this seems spot on for today‘s climate…
“‘One accusation is off the mark. Foreigners aren‘t the ‘criminal contagion‘ so many claim. As a policeman, I can attest to that. It takes a lot to leave your home. To start life over in a new place requires courage. It takes energy and ambition.‘”
This book takes place in 1866. The MCs fight against a prejudicial society in the UK. Very timely indeed.
Annabelle wakes up in a river and is adopted by a strange group of teens who live in the ghost town on top of Resurrection Peak. She can‘t remember what led to her ending up in the river but she returns to her life with the mission of finding out.
It was frustrating watching Annie miss all the signs that she was dead for so long, not to mention the multiple potholes, and how horribly she treated Sam.

Now this is the kind of email I enjoy opening!!
A man kills his wife and two of his three children, shocking the small island community where he lives. Twenty years his surviving son returns to the island forcing everyone to face their complicated feelings about what happened and what it means. This was so good. The emotions in this book escalated as layers to the story were uncovered until I was turning pages with my heart firmly lodged in my throat.
